By purchasing from Katana Corp, you acknowledge and agree that:
For full details, please refer to our Terms of Service.
To maintain your katana's appearance and performance over time, we recommend:
- Regularly wiping the blade with a soft cloth to remove fingerprints and moisture.
- Applying a light coat of choji oil to prevent rust (for carbon steel blades).
- Storing the sword in a dry place, preferably inside its saya.
- Avoiding direct contact with hard surfaces to preserve sharpness and finish.
For more care tips, check our full maintenance guide in the FAQ section.
Every katana we offer carries the essence of centuries-old craftsmanship.
More than just a weapon, the katana symbolizes discipline, honor, and mastery.
Our artisans draw inspiration from traditional forging methods to ensure each blade reflects the spirit of the samurai - strength, precision, and soul.
Owning one is not just about aesthetics - it’s about carrying a piece of that legacy.
This katana is designed to offer a perfect balance between blade and handle.
Its ergonomic tsuka (handle) allows a secure two-handed grip, while the weight distribution ensures smooth, fluid movement.
Sold for collection and display. Handle carefully when placing on a stand or carrying out maintenance.
1095 steel / blue blade and saya / Azure Spirit
The blade and saya of Azure Spirit share a clear metallic blue, set against a black handle and dark openwork guard. Look closer at the blade and a bo-hi groove runs beside a subtle hamon. Its appeal is in that combination of color and quieter blade details, with a brass collar providing a small warm accent.
The blade
Azure Spirit lists 1095 carbon steel with a genuine clay-tempered hamon. The blue finish leaves that line more subtle than it appears on a plain polished blade. A bo-hi groove runs along the steel as a separate feature. The blade is sharpened and full tang, with a 72 cm length. No measured hardness is supplied for this particular sword.
The fittings
Black cotton wraps over black synthetic rayskin, leaving the brighter color to the blade and glossy blue wooden saya. The iron tsuba uses an openwork pattern with dark curved shapes around the blade collar. A black cord ties around the saya. The restrained handle makes it easier to see the blue finish and the small details in the steel.
A steel number alone does not establish the quality of a finished blade. Azure Spirit combines its 1095 specification with listed clay tempering and a groove. Hekinan uses 1060 steel with white wave decoration, while Blue Blade uses a different blue finish. Our katana steel guide explains the grades without treating color as a material.
In your collection
The katana comes with its blue saya and an ornate display stand. Placing the saya beside a securely displayed blade shows how the two finishes relate, while the black handle keeps the arrangement simple. Allow space for the 105 cm overall length.
Keep the blade dry and follow the Care & Maintenance instructions above. A colored finish still needs careful handling. Avoid abrasive polish on the blue surfaces, use a soft cloth around the groove and guard, and keep oil off the black cotton and synthetic rayskin.
It is listed as 1095 carbon steel with a blue finish. The finish describes the surface color; 1095 describes the blade steel.
Yes. Azure Spirit is listed with a genuine clay-tempered hamon. It appears as a subtle line beneath the blue finish in the close-up photos.
It is a bo-hi, a longitudinal groove in the blade. It is separate from the hamon, which is the line associated with the listed heat treatment.
The finished blade depends on its construction and heat treatment as well as the grade. Compare the complete model specifications rather than assuming a higher number guarantees better performance.
Both use an azure-blue finish, although reflections and lighting can make the shade look different. The handle, guard and cord stay dark.
No. The black cotton handle is wrapped over black synthetic rayskin. This material is listed separately from the steel and heat treatment.
Yes. It is sharpened and full tang. It is sold for collection and display, with careful handling needed around the edge during setup and maintenance.
Overall length is 105 cm, with a 72 cm blade and a 30 cm handle. The matching saya and an ornate display stand are included.

Customer reviews
Good sword, small issue on arrival
Saya mouth was slightly loose when I got it, fitting tape sorted it. Balance is great though. People at my dojo always ask about it.
Way better than I expected
Hamon is clean, handle wrap tight, saya closes solid. Came in a wooden box. No complaints at all for the price.
Got it as a gift, he was speechless
Bought for my boyfriend who does iaido. He said the fit and finish were legit. I knew nothing about swords, site made it easy to pick.
Nice blade but took 2 weeks to arrive
Damascus looks great. Shipping to Portland took forever and tracking was dead for a week. Quality is there, logistics need work.
Third order, still no complaints
Ordered three times over two years. Always well packed, matches the photos. Support replied same day. Will keep coming back.
